On ark ume (or literally ANY platform besides old ark mobile) pternadons can attack by pecking similar to a tapejara while walking on land, which is good because if your pteranodon run out of stamina and you are forced to land near dilos or raptors you can actually fight back instead of being helpless on old ark mobile

What are mobile controls now for pteranadon

Great scouts to get around quickly and look for stuff on the island

Always keep dodo kibble to tame it. If you want to know the stat you need to add to it, try to reach ≈550 stamina first, then increase its weight to 220. The rest until you reach ≈ 950 stamina, then focus on weight until up to 350. The rest is up to you. I prefer increasing its speed and melee. But good luck you guys!

To the guy who said how to grab stuff on mobile thank you so much!!!! I can now know how to grab stuff and tame them! Once I get a argy I will tame a anky so I can get metal even faster thank you so much!!!!

Advice, If your pteranadon flies into a small space (eg, any cave enterance designed for you to go through with no mount) Please either put it into a cryopod, or request it if you’re on mobile, I lost my best pteranadon because it flew into a cave enterance, Then got stuck, I tried to lead it out, But ark insta-killed it for clipping into a wall(?) Don’t make my mistake.

Pteranodon are incredible useful and can be a really good first flyer. Here is why:

-very easy creatures to tame. You just need a bunch of raw prime fish meat ( you can collect a lot by killing sabertooth salmons with sickle and collect their meat ) and 3 tranqs ( or 1 with a X-bow ). I should recommend taking 4 raw prime fish meat and 2 narcs also for the taming.

-They take quiet fast level up after taming and can fast get to 400-500 health.

-They do quiet a lot of damages ( I managed to kill a low level Rex with a lvl 5 pteranodon and a spike ).

- They are quiet fast and even tough not the best for collect and harvesting, they are incredibly useful for exploration of the map.

-When out of energy, their stamina reloads fast.

BUT: To not loose every ptera you tame, here are some tips:

-When they are out of stamina, they will land and you can’t really control where. So make sure there are not carnivors or any aggressive dinos around when you’re low on energy, or you might die very fast ( especially Rex, Allo, Spino and of course gigas ). Since they are flyers and quiet small, you can easily land on rocks that carnivores can’t access ( and you can regain stamina safely )

-Make sure to always have some food to feed them ( as they starve quiet fast when out of food ).

-When you want to tame a dino, land with them on a rock and set them on « passive » so they will be safe waiting for you and they will not attack and kill ( or get killed by ) the dino you’re trying to tame.

-When you land, make sure they will not fall ( especially when exploring the big mountains ), bcs they will take a lot of fall damages.

You will make these mistakes, even tough you think about it, you will make them. ( I lost 10 pteras ). So I should recommend you to tame 5,6 of them to have some more if you come to die with one of them.

By the way sorry if my English is not the best, I’m Belgian.

I hope this was useful 😀

Get a raptor for chitin or keritn if you are starting

Upgrade Wrieght to you most set him on passief of he atack order dinos

You can’t roll in mobile I’ve tried everything don’t listen to these peoples lies😑

Lots of people say don't fly high because if the stamina runs out you have 7 seconds before it's knocked out, don't listen to them just force feed your pterdon stim berries

Be care full the stamina is low but you won’t fall wen it’s out you’ll just fly slowly back land automatically.

EVERY NOOB SHOULD TAME IMMEDIATELY!

tame as soon as possible and level up ONLY their stamina and by the time you can craft a saddle for this guy he’ll be able to go really long distances easily!

Pls /\ so noobs can know

If u are on ark mobile they can fit through door very hard but can

Usefol tot fightinig if you have a lod of them i defeated 50 giga with 100 of Them

People talk all the time about an army of raptors, rexes, dolphins, dimorphodons...

So what about an army of Pt's?

-taming and breeding is super easy with these guys, they're fast, have relatively high melee for basically a starter dino and REALLY powerful in swarms. It's an army of dimorphodons, but FASTER AND BIGGER AND STRONGER!

If you have issues with stamina while flying, pack loads of stimberries with, and loads of raw meat too. When fed stimberries, their stamina goes up by 5, however instead of a decrease in water, they go hungry, that's where the meat comes in. I'd advice improving speed and weight capacity

I'm sure of this on mobile. Your ptera can fit through a single door, get your head in and aim down, congrats you fit through a door! I'm pretty sure it will work on other platforms to, enjoy

You should be level its weight up to about 200-250 and then spam stamina for every level after that. They're super fast but can't hamdle themselves on the ground so it's good to be able to stay in the air.
